Chris Royal

Christopher Royal grew up in the Southeast, moving to Chicago to pursue his acting career. He began his furniture design career in miniature, creating a series of tiny "Art Chairs" made of brass, copper, steel and beadwork. These chairs were extremely popular, selling in galleries across the country until he could no longer keep up with the demand. His latest line of miniature chairs are cut from nickel silver and incorporate a clip into the design for cards, photos, etc. In 1998 Chris joined forces with Rockledge design studios, and together they have been translating his whimsical miniature designs into full-size, functional furniture. The line now includes chairs, a loveseat, side tables and more. The pieces are made of beautifully polished aluminum, uniting style and function.
